Analysis of the film poster:


Analysis:




This is our final film poster, we edited the film poster on Photoshop. I think this is a very successful final because we have included both the protagonist and the antagonist within the main image. This final poster gives an indication to the audience about what the film is about, this is especially shown within the title because it is in big, white font and the word 'snatched' suggests that someone is being taken. This is also suggested because of the photograph, the audience see the protagonist dressed in white which suggests that she is innocent and in danger. The effect on the image also emphasises the whiteness of the model and makes her look as if she is a ghost which could intrigue the audience and make them wonder if the protagonist is alive or dead. 

When editing the poster we decided to make the actors names red because it is suggesting they are in danger or one of them is the antagonist and they are going to do something bad to the protagonist. The background is also blurred out to make it look like the protagonist is running away from the antagonist who looks as if he/she is going to grab her and 'snatch' her. We also took the photograph in the environment because we want to link our poster to the film as much as we can. The woods is also a very common setting for a horror film to be set because it has the stereotypes of danger happening in the woods, especially when you are alone. The woods is a very eerie place because it is so dark and the trees are big enough to hide people. 

The slogan is the same song which we used in our trailer. 'If you go down to the woods today, you better not go alone.' This gives an indication to what is happening in the film and that maybe the protagonist went to the woods alone and put herself in danger. So maybe it is her fault? This should stand out to the target audience because they will most likely remember the nursery rhyme 'teddy bear's picnic' which was probably sung to them when they were younger and it might bring back memories. It also will add a scary effect because it is suggesting we are making a happy memory into a horror movie. The small font explains who produced, filmed and wrote the film and also explains the release dates.
